The "Madonna and Child" by Artemisia Gentileschi is an oil painting on canvas made between 1610 and 1611, currently on display at the Galleria Spada in Rome. This work reflects Gentileschi’s mastery in using light and colour to emphasise the tenderness of the moment between mother and child.
In the scene, the Madonna is portrayed at the end of breastfeeding, in the act of tucking her breast back into her dress, while the Child gazes at her affectionately and caresses her face. The choice of intimate details and the emotional rendering reveal a uniquely feminine sensitivity, despite some inaccuracies in the posture and proportions of the figures
